The work Composition with Varied Forms by Jackson Pollock was sold in the A Century of Art: The Gerald Fineberg Collection Part I auction at Christies in New York in May this year. It achieved a price of USD 1,683,500.00 (€ 1,580,157.69), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 40%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jackson Pollock achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Number 17, 1951 in November 2021 with an auction result of USD 61,161,000.00 (€ 54,187,117.92).
